$r->status isn't quite the same as the handler return code, you can write
your code as a handler subroutine that does 'return FORBIDDEN;'
or use this undocumented feature:
$Apache::ERRSV_CAN_BE_HTTP = 1; #set this anywhere, startup script is best
die FORBIDDEN;
mod_perl peeks at $@, if it's a 3 digit http status code, it propagates
that value to Apache.
